Now gorgon Reason sinks to rest,

And Fancy, with unchartered range,

Soars to the regions of the bless'd;

The transit neither hard, nor strange.

How radiant the etherial light!

Credulity, companion kind,

Has spread her wing to join the flight—

The spirit's dungeon left behind.

Borne upward to the glorious sky,

Crowds of celestial beings throng;
